Default Re: Tube shock conversion for 1940 2 dr

I use mostly CE stuff, but Pete and Jakes front kit is also good. I have that kit on the front of my 40. On the rear you can use the bolt on brackets from Pure Hot Rods. The lower brackets bolt to your axle housings/backing plates. They sell them here on the V-8 swap site. Not sure what they have for upper brackets, but I would buy some upper brackets from CE. I would not use a single stud mounting through the crossmember. Seems like a recipe for a crack in the crossmember.
